answer text

<p>Ministry of Defence policy is to use standard contract conditions to prevent the unauthorised disclosure of information for a variety of legitimate reasons, including protection of national security, commercial confidentiality and personal data. However, they would not stop criticism of Ministers or the Department as these conditions only protect information supplied in connection with or under the contract.</p><p>Information on bespoke contract conditions is not held centrally and could be provided only at disproportionate cost.</p>
